So, if you don’t already know, I am a pro at
procrastinating. About 2 months ago I signed up for the Miami Half Marathon of
February 2nd. At the time I figured I had about 8 weeks to train, no
problem-o! Then, the Holidays happened. So much food, traveling, time off from
work, time to sleep in…Now I’m about 4 weeks away and I really NEED to start
training… oops.
Funny thing too, 2 months ago when I looked up training
plans online, there were a TON of 8 week half marathon training plans. Do you
know what there are zero of? 4 week half marathon training plans. Well ladies
and gentlemen, I present my very own 4-week training plan. Don’t know how well
it’s going to work out, but after February 2nd I’ll let you know!
I would also like to add that I am NOT a runner. I actually
don’t really enjoy running at all. I’m a swimmer; I do really well in the
water. Water polo, diving, swim meets… that's my thing, that's what I’m good
at. I would actually prefer to swim a half marathon than run one. I was forced
encouraged by a few friends to sign up. They said I would be so happy and proud
once I cross the finish line. I think someone even used the word “elated”. And to
be perfectly honest, I think they’re right.
So, I’m going to give this running thing a shot.
If any of you are in the Miami area and want to run the half
or the full marathon, here is the link to sign up. If you’re in the military, I
have a coupon code for 50% off!
I'm already tired just look and read the Jan training plan. You go girl! I'm very proud of you. Much love!
